First cauli


My First Cauliflower! I tried to grow cauliflowers, unsuccessfully, a few years back. I had another go this year. I read that they like hard ground so I planted them in an area that hadn't been dug over. It was so hard it was difficult to dig a hole to plant them! They seem to have liked it though. They are in a bit of a poorly accessible part of my veggie plot next to the hedge so they haven't had much attention. And I haven't yet quite got the hang of covering them with their leaves to prevent rain damage and keep the curds white but even so I think they're pretty impressive.
